Cormorant Cottage Garden Beach Abode w Game Room

Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac, this charming coastal escape is just a six-minute walk to the crystal-clear waters of Geographe Bay and a short stroll to the shops and cafés of Dunsborough. Perfect for families, this home boasts a spacious garden, a separate games studio with a ping pong table and a sofa bed, and multiple alfresco areas. Enjoy relaxing in the open-plan living spaces or exploring the Cape Naturaliste region for the ultimate beachside getaway.
Designed for memorable coastal escapes, this welcoming home combines comfortable interiors with generous outdoor spaces and a separate games studio, creating plenty of room for families and groups to spread out. The main living area centres around plush seating and a TV, with coastal-inspired décor creating a relaxed atmosphere throughout.

The kitchen caters effortlessly to everyday holiday living, featuring ample bench space, modern appliances, a dishwasher, and a coffee machine. Casual breakfasts can be enjoyed at the breakfast bar, while the nearby dining table comfortably seats six for group meals and evening catch-ups. Just beyond, a covered alfresco setting invites long lunches and casual dinners overlooking the garden, while the expansive lawn provides plenty of space for children to play and adults to unwind amongst the leafy surrounds.

A standout feature of the property is the separate games studio. Complete with a ping pong table, TV/DVD setup, air conditioning, comfortable seating, and a sofa bed that can be prepared as a sleeping area on request, it offers a versatile space for entertainment and downtime. The studio opens directly onto a second patio furnished with outdoor lounge seating and a BBQ, providing another inviting space to gather, linger over a morning coffee, or enjoy relaxed evenings amongst the garden surrounds.

The primary bedroom provides a comfortable retreat with a queen bed, a wall-mounted TV, a dedicated workspace, and an ensuite. A second bedroom also features a queen bed, while the third bedroom accommodates younger guests with two single beds. Two bathrooms support the home, including a spacious main bathroom with a bath and a separate shower.

An internal laundry adds convenience throughout longer stays, while driveway parking for two vehicles makes arrival and departure easy.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!

Geographe Bay invites you to swim, paddleboard, or relax along its pristine shoreline. For dining, visit Blue Manna Bistro for exceptional seafood, Albert’s Bar & Kitchen for contemporary cocktails and share plates, or grab a coffee at the popular Yahava KoffeeWorks. If you’re after something casual, Meelup Farmhouse offers a laid-back atmosphere with stunning views and local produce.
Shopping enthusiasts will love the boutique stores in town, from artisan goods at Christian Fletcher Gallery to unique homewares at Zinc. Stock up on local wines and gourmet products at Occy’s Food and Liquor or the Dunsborough Centrepoint Shopping Centre.
For activities, explore Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse, a short drive away, and enjoy breathtaking views or guided tours. Walk the trails in Meelup Regional Park, where native flora and fauna surround you. Families will love a visit to Country Life Farm, and adventurous guests can take a whale-watching tour during migration season or visit nearby wineries in the Margaret River region.

Comfortable and Convenient

We loved our stay at Cormorant Cottage! We were in Dunsborough for a sporting event, so its location was very convenient being close to the town which has plenty of shops and eating places. The house had everything we needed - a very well equipped kitchen & laundry, plenty of seating and tables inside and out. The beds were comfortable (we only used the two queens). The larger bathroom is huge and includes a bath, however the 'ensuite' bathroom is actually part of the main bedroom - there is no separating wall - it's around the corner from the bed, but you walk straight into it from the hallway - not a good design really! The house has a lovely private garden - very peaceful sitting outside in the beautiful fine weather we had!

Ta

Lovely place. Would have been nice to be told toilet was broken and overflowed when flushed. Toilet in main bedroom fine, however given ensuite had no door, no one could go to the toilet if anyone was asleep in the main bedroom. As explained by Property Manager when I called it in, the owner already knew. Perhaps the owner should be offering renters discounts until they fix the roots in the septic pipes. Other than that, lovely place. One hint though, one aircon for the whole house?? Perhaps one at each end of the house, then the main room wouldn't be sweltering by the morning and the rest of the house cold (closing bedroom door). Thank you to your company for making the process so easy.

A change

We have been going to SBB for 6 years as my brother always enter a sculpture. We are now all in our 70's and at the age for trips or falls looked for somewhere without stairs which had a separate games room with a large couch or sofa bed as a member of our party suffers from insomnia so he needs somewhere he won't disturb everyone if he cannot sleep. Cormorant Cottage is in a great location, has the space and is really well equipped however there were two things that we were disappointed with. ACCURACY OF ONLINE LISTING. Firstly the couch in the family room - NOTHING like the photos on the website, in fact the blue couch is very uncomfortable and would benefit with a clean. Secondly it states that there was a sofa bed in the games room - if in fact it is a sofa bed I/we couldn't see how it worked. We had 2 problems which were dealt with quickly and efficiently by Shaun. The problem with wifi connection could be eliminated by adding another chapter to instructions.

Good location, poor cleanliness.

The cleanliness of the property was pretty poor. Close the curtains and dust went everywhere. Floors made your feet black. The games room was flithy - floors,bugs, etc. Ants were frequent in the house. The kitchen and bathroom was clean. Outside area full of cobwebs and we had to clean down the outside table and chairs before we could use it. The house itself was a good size and beds comfortable. Would stay again if cleanliness improved
